Make z/VM TCPIP FTP server RFC 3659 compliant

We've recently implemented z/VM 7.1 after being away from z/VM for many, many years. During the setup and installation we tailored TCPIP and specifically the FTP server but discovered that it is not compatible with GUI FTP clients like the FileZilla client. I have also attempted to access the z/VM FTP server from one of our EDI transfer applications which supports FTPS (FTP over TLS Explicit) and this failed to parse the working directory as well. The z/VM FTP Server does not present it's responses to the PWD and other commands in an RFC 3659 manner.

    By the way, when using Filezilla, use /userid.191 instead of just userid.191. You can also try SITE LISTFORMAT UNIX (or have the CHKIPADR exit set that automatically for a user).

    Do you mean all of RFC 3659 ( a collection of different options), or just TVFS (as called out by Filezilla bug report)?
